To display the playing time of an indi-
vidual track

Whilst in the stop mode, press the

button to display the track number and

track name.

Press the DISP button to display the play-
ing time for that track.

●

displayed.

When the battery

When the battery
level is very low

Checking the remaining amount of
battery level

The remaining amount of battery level is shown
by the battery indicator (

) during operation.

●

When the battery is completely discharged, the battery
indicator will flash. Recharge the battery or replace the
alkaline battery with a new one.

●

When the battery has run completely out, “BATT
EMPTY” will appear. Then, the power will be discon-
nected automatically.

Notes:

●

If you use the battery which you stopped charging half-
way, “

” may appear. It does not mean that the bat-

tery is completely charged.

●

The battery indicator will not correctly display the remain-
ing capacity for approximately 10 seconds after the power
has been turned on.

●

When the AC adaptor or a separately available car adap-
tor is used, the battery indicator will not be shown.

●

The number of bars shown in the battery indicator may
increase or decrease, depending on the operation be-
ing performed. This is normal.
